Is my CPU being bottlenecked by my GPU?

[IIINicky]

Hey guys, so I recently got Battlefield 4 as I just upgraded my PC. But I still cant run it. I was poking around the internet trying to find if it was a bug with the game, but didn't see anything. Maybe you could help me with that.

So anyway, I have come to the conclusion that it's my GPU is bottlenecking my CPU? I have went into Battlefield 4 and tested it. I started from low settings then changed it to median.... Then ultra. I noticed that the fps stayed on 25 the whole time, Just budging up and down a little.

MY SPECS:

CPU: AMD A6-6400k APU
GPU: Nvidia GTX 750ti (2GB Edition)
RAM: 8GB of DDR3 RAM
PSU: 500W
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium
MOBO: GIGABYTE F2A55M-HD2

Thank you,
Nick.

Dude it`s because the A6 is a AM2 chip which is reaching it`s end of life cycle anyway and it`s an APU... APU`s are`nt really meant to be run with discrete graphics along side it...

It`s a good chip, it`s just the combo that`s messing you up

You Must Get Atleast An i3-4130 It'll Perform Good...................But As You Are Using AM3+ Socket You Should Get Atleast An FX-6300 To Not Be Bottlenecked

your CPU is the one bottle necking your GPU

You have what amounts to a lower end dual core CPU found on the bottom of this chart, and nothing near the 290X.

If you had an AMD video card you could enable Mantle, but the 750TI won't handle that. You need a CPU upgrade.

AM2? AM3+? Guys, he has an FM2 board. Can't run the FX series of CPUs.

disable the integrated gpu and you will be able to run the game fine

Yeah Sorry You Have FM2 Socket Type So Get A Decent FM2 CPU

750k or 760k

AM2? AM3+? Guys, he has an FM2 board. Can't run the FX series of CPUs.

Could I run FM2+ CPUs on my FM2? I heard they can run the same type of socket? Am I correct?

If it does`nt explicitly say FM2+ I would`nt take that chance...
